Clinical efficacy of transcutaneous pelvic floor magnetic stimulation combined with urination training in the treatment of overactive bladder in children.
Article in BMC pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the clinical effect of transcutaneous pelvic floor magnetic stimulation combined with urination training in the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) in children.
methodsIn this study, the clinical data of 42 children with OAB who were treated with transcutaneous pelvic floor magnetic stimulation combined with the urination training method at our hospital from March 2022 to December 2022 (Group B) were collected. The clinical data of 50 children with OAB who were treated with the urination training method at our hospital from December 2021 to February 2022 (Group A) were used as controls. The clinical efficacy of treatment was compared between the two groups.
resultsAfter 2 weeks of treatment, the Akbal scale scores of the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (P < 0.05). After two weeks of treatment, the Akbal score of Group B was significantly lower than that of Group A (P < 0.05). The maximum voiding volume (MVV), average voiding volume (AVV), maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate and voiding frequency significantly differed between the two groups as well as before and after treatment (P < 0.05). Specifically, the MVV, AVV and maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate and voiding frequency significantly differed between the two groups after treatment, and the improvement value of Group B was greater than that of Group A (P < 0.05). After 2 weeks of treatment, the Akbal score revealed that the degree of improvement in frequent urination throughout the day, the degree of urgency and quality of life of patients in Group B were significantly greater than those in Group A (P < 0.05).
conclusionTranscutaneous pelvic floor magnetic stimulation combined with urination training was effective in the treatment of children with OAB. Compared with urination training alone, this method can achieve better therapeutic effects and can more effectively improve the symptoms, bladder capacity and urination function of children after 2 weeks of treatment.
